Those looking for some good Wolves vs Manchester United prediction and betting tips are at the right place! We’re now gonna discuss everything about the Tuesday’s evening duel taking place at the Molineux Stadium in Wolverhampton. Last time Wolves and Manchester United met, the home team was the victor. Will the same happen again? Let’s find out!
Wolves
Some two weeks ago, Wolves played Manchester United in the FA Cup and the score was 2:1. Sure, the main focus of the Red Devils is the Premier League, but the cup game showed that Wolves are a serious team. Another thing that proves that the club from West Midlands needs to be taken seriously is that they’re currently at the 7th place.
What this means is that, with a bit of luck, they could get themselves a place in Europa League next season, which is a really great achievement for a team that played in the Championship last season. Of course, the competition for that spot is pretty fierce and with 7 rounds to go, anything can happen.
But, Wolves certainly don’t want to leave anything to chance, which is why you can be sure they’re gonna do their very best to win at least a point in this game. And that’s something their fans are gonna help them with. Wolves have been excellent at home this season, winning against such sides as Liverpool (FA Cup), Chelsea (Premier League), and of course Man United (FA Cup).
They also drew against Man City, Everton, etc. And the most impressive fact about their home performances is that they’re without a defeat at the Molineux Stadium since the second day of January, winning 6 games and playing draw on one occasion. All these things might make you think our Wolves vs Manchester United prediction is gonna be in the favor of the hosts, but let’s see first what the visitors have to offer!
Manchester United
The biggest news from Manchester United is that Ole Gunnar Solskjaer has become their permanent manager. This can’t be a big surprise considering that since his arrival, the Red Devils have been sensational.
With Mourinho in charge, they had the worst start of the season since Premier League was established back in the nineties. But, when Solskjaer arrived, they got themselves in a form that their fans haven’t seen in years. Their form did drop a bit lately, but, they are still at a very good place on the Premier League, not to mention that they’re playing in the quarterfinal of the Champions League.
The Red Devils are currently at the 4th place in the Premier League, which is where they wish to stay till the end of the season. Considering that the top 4 spots get to play in the elite Euro competition, staying there is an imperative. It’s not just about the money they’d get from it, but also because of the players. Big stars like Paul Pogba want to play in the Champions League, not Europa League.
In order to stay among top 4, the Red Devils need to do well in the remainder of the season. And because they got a couple of very tough matches (Man City, Chelsea, Everton, etc.), I’m pretty certain they will do their utmost to win against Wolves.
